Cut flowers are an important part of commercial floriculture and also bring an export income in many ways through global market. Vase life and longevity of cut flowers depend upon different varieties and their freshness varies upon preharvest, harvest and post-harvest conditions. The post-harvest factors must be considered to prolong vase life to obtain desirable quality of cut flowers. In this review, senescence and post-harvest physiology of cut flowers and various pre harvest, harvest and post-harvest factors affecting the life and quality of cut flowers is discussed. Also, solutions are provided along with examples to increase the vase life of cut flowers.
